Smoked pork shoulder (Boston butt)

  • put rub all over pork shoulder
  • cover with plastic and place in refrigerator for at least 2-6 hours.
  • put smoker on at 225 – put meat on grill and stick in your meat thermometer
  • close lid and cook until the thermometer reads 195F and don’t open the lid until it’s done.
  • use clean heavy rubber gloves to remove meat from smoker once it’s at 195.
  • let rest for at least 30 minutes. Then shred/slice and serve. Enjoy

For me, a 7.5 lb shoulder took 12 hours to get to 192 degrees.  I took it off at that time and it tasted great!
Another one, 8 lbs took 14 hours to get to 195 degrees…
